Flyers deserve better treatment

Four lawyers in Guangdong province have requested the Civil Aviation Administration of China to ask airlines to give passengers information on the crew before a flight takes off. But more than that, passengers need information on flight delays, which have become common in China, says an article in Guangzhou Daily. Excerpts:

The request to give passengers information on the flight crew was obviously prompted by the Asiana Airlines crash in San Francisco earlier this month. Airlines are not only obliged to let passengers know who the crew members are, but also to ensure their safety.
